Ah I see your edit now, thanks (and see how it was assumed implied :) )

iOS lets you create “secret chats”

How? Not natively unless I’m mistaken

In 2019, The North Face faced consumer backlash and apologized after its marketing agency surreptitiously added photos featuring its apparel to Wikipedia articles on popular outdoor destinations.

Edit: they also sent a cease & desist to The South Butt a decade before that

“Hi I wasn’t paid six dollars on Fiverr to post here” (does increase costs obviously but marginally for high-margin/volume products)

Some places in California, can sign up to volunteer with (paid expert) rangers to clear invasives

Unfortunately destroyed by flood in 2019 with most of my things. Inquired at the retirees club zoom last week, but there’s almost no one the right age left. Not sure where else to ask.

This one just goes down as true 🫡

edit: goes down as true in a way that I won’t be able to accept in post-2022 years 😢

IDK bout fighting vigilantes with vigilante justice though, isn’t there something he could be charged with if he’s breaking laws?

Ahahahahaha one of the best I’ve seen thanks

Ah, Down Cemetery Road - maybe you saw Slow Horses from the same author’s mind?

Both mentioned in this Mirror article (known for top journalism, OK maybe not but entertainment pieces could be all right)

There are at least a dozen countries around the world where less than half of residents would be able to read your post no matter what language it was translated into. Which is to say basic literacy, [which should be] a human right, is apparently a privilege in today’s world.

Then what you’re talking about goes beyond that to a strong command of the language—definitely an awesome power :) we are lucky to be able to do this. (usually, for me, and there’s usually some technological/social bridge for exceptions)

Sweet. Anyone recently install this for the first time?:

I’d think the installer could ask if the user is most familiar with Microsoft products or whatever, then confirm which interface will be defaulted as a result.

Would have to create an issue or something for this eh

I think the joke stands a chance at landing well in a thread where there was a tie into queer folks perhaps, since it tried to speak truth to power right?

May have seemed a non sequitur* as is—that clarification, definitely important. (*Some may have felt like two wrongs didn’t make a right maybe)

Can’t find it via web search 🤔 interesting it wasn’t published in that same form, feel it’s rare to come up empty on something like this

Training starts now

For one incredible upset, one great outcry, and one bucket-list rule change

Isn’t it an AI adaptation of the classic?

What’s the modem clone about?

In the end, we opted for a simple strategy, sidestepping GitHub’s aggressive vendor lock-in: leave the existing issues open and unmigrated, but start counting issues at 30000 on Codeberg so that all issue numbers remain unambiguous. Let us please consider the GitHub issues that remain open as metaphorically “copy-on-write”.

Do you know anything about the referenced vendor lock-in?

Thank you for your service 🫡
